Actually, it sounds like she's dating the Bubbas. I rarely, if ever, saw anybody with SKOAL when I lived in Atlanta for a few years. Perhaps she should try to larger Southern cities where she'll find the Northerners, the Midwesterns, the Westerners AND the foreigners.

As I said, high expectations. Maybe what you want from a man isn't available where you are. Just like meeting men who are looking for an actual relationship rather than a NSA thing is very difficult in LA, so I'm moving to an area that, from the research I've done, have people who are more relationship minded.

CESpeed where are people more relationship minded? I'm curious because I want to move there. What does NSA mean?
High expectations doesn't mean you're an idiot or wrong though. It just means you have to do research, judge better and seek out better.

Most of my "exes" were somewhat foreign. Had different mixes of ethnicities.

Even the not-great ones are better than the average Southern good ol' boy. I guess I will see the day I end up with a nice foreign guy. They are not perfect, but they are better than what you get in Dixie. I could go on all day about htis, but I realize I have to share this board. Happy dating.

First of all, that rep I just gave you-----totally accidental, I was meaning to quote your horrific post.
If you were a lady, you would bring up your relationship disappointments in a more reasonable manner.
Blanket statements like yours will never and can never be true.
My husband is "Arabic" btw that is a language not a nationality or group, the term would be "Arab" or whatever country they come from---and I assure you there are just as many problems with Arab men as there are with American, Mexican, Californian, Canadian, Swedish, Polish, Russian, African, Chinese, Portugese, Japanese, etc.................................
My step father is a man from South Carolina and he is nothing like you describe. He is the smartest man I know (smarter than my Arab husband btw) and a very kind, considerate gentleman. My mother (a Yankee) should be thanking her lucky stars for him everyday.
You need to step back, relax and look at yourself in the mirror.
Would you like someone to come on here and bash souther chicks who go to church groups then make rude comments about entire groups of people?

Some females rarely get called again after the first date regardless of where the guy is from. This is when they have to assess their own character....not his.

Oh well. To each his own. Everyone has some kind of preference...everywhere. Latino and black males tend to be "booty" men...Football jocks always date the all-American bleached blond sterotype cheerleader/Barbie doll...But I know some men have very GOOD taste. I've heard a lot about men dating foreigners...a lot of the time Spanish, Latina, Brazilian, Columbian, etc. because they are more family-oriented and have a stronger sense of values. Well, they're thinking. I've also noticed that A LOT of the men who have propositioned me in my lifetime have been dark-complected. (sp?) Amazing. I don't look that dark. Brown/brown yes...on one date I was told I looked Indian. Never heard that before. My last ex was heavy on the Spanish?Mexican side -again, dark complected male. I used to go crazy for the blond buff jocks, but they only are attracted to the aforementioned dumb blondes. Now I hear my cousin who lives in Kansas City is dating an Italian immigrant. I haven't seen a picture of her-I wonder if we look much alike? We're one year apart in age. It's one thing to get rejected by someone who has more going on-that's never bothered me-but to see men pick the women beneath them? Now that puzzles me no end. One of my few Southern exes dumped me when I was 23 for a 30 year old single mother of three kids by different fathers. Now that just grinded my gears!! If he dumped me for a woman who had more to offer-that's one thing-but dumped for an older woman with bastard kids?? I knew I wasn't that "in love" back then, and it wasn't going anywhere, but it angered me that he dumped me for a woman of lower quality. CESPeed, you're probably right about LA, I understand completely.

not getting a return phone call after a date most of the time has nothing to do with poor character........please stop being so negative and unreasonable.

Jolly Good Question, Artsyguy. I wish I had an intelligent answer for you. I guess it is just a sixth sense or something. Or maybe it is just dumb, blind luck.

My troll-o-meter is going off here. I really don't believe that *anybody* actually, really thinks like this. Not in this century.
If this post is legit. I'd say you pretty much answered your own questions.
